Don't Want To Grow Up Anymore

I so don't want to grow up anymore than I already have. It has been a up hill climb up till now and I want to play again and not worry about adult stresses. I am completely frustrated right now. Car shopping is suppose to be fun, but for some reason it just hasn't come together for me right this second. I know that everything happens for a reason, but come on now. I am afraid of my truck being unreliable and according to a couple of sources it is. I hate worrying about money and credit. My Mother always has said "money" is the devil and I'm starting to think that it is one of his pawns. I am just trying to make a good decision here and be in a car that will last me a while. I am looking at certain prospects and it is a tricky thing to navigate. It will all work out exactly the way it is suppose to and if I keep praying and searching it will come together the right way.



The people around me are all suffering from this crumbling economy and everyday I hear about it own the news. And all the solutions are either long drawn out fixes or idiotic to the point of wasteful spending by our government. The main reason I call myself a Republican is that I am against big government control. Personally, I don't like the taxes being raised just so that we can pay for these organizations that were unable to maintain a responsible hold on their finances. Now, I have been a victim of credit and I know how important it is to keep a close watch over how much you spend and how quickly you do so. While trying to spend over their means, many Americans have overextended their check books by thinking they had to have "it" and have it right now. This notion is what has us here today in this economic crisis. Everyone is so quick to blame former President Bush for causing this and I think that is ludicrous. In order to fix this, we all are going to have to take a good look in the mirror and think how can I do better or spend more efficiently and not on junk that we don't really need. Maybe that is how we, as the American people, should look at purchases that require credit. Do we really need it? It always seems like it is the actions of a few that mess it up for the rest of us. I can't spend above my means because I don't have that much money to play with. I have bills to pay and they come every month like clock work. And even shopping for me is a hard decision due to always being reminded that the money could be better served elsewhere. Ugh.... I don't wanna grow up. If I had any advice for Grey and Taylor, it would be just don't grow up. Because being a grown up means that you have to learn words like stimulus, national debt, high gas prices, and stock market closings. (I never really have understood that whole stock market thing.) I earned an A in economics in high school but you would never know it. I know that the President has a big laid out plan, but the same people that he has working for him have been in Washington for some years now. His Chief of Staff worked for the Clinton administration years ago. So are we really getting a solution or just another democratic politician who likes to spend our money. We won't really know until time passes. Unfortunately, the public is crying out for relief. Last Monday, Kyla lost her second job at RAB collections. She had become a part-time employee recently but before that had been with the company for over three years. I have patients that are telling me that they have lost their jobs after 15 years of employment with a company. It's scary out there these days. Again, this all makes me so thankful to have a decent job.

Bu-Bye until next time, and don't grow up it sucks.
